Gentle Restorative Yoga
A restorative practice offers your body the opportunity to relax and renew from generalized fatigue and the stresses of day-to-day life. Providing gentle movement and deep relaxation, all postures are practiced while seated or reclined. The use of props (blankets, bolsters) in this practice help support the body to release with comfort and ease. Practicing Yin Yoga will help you to reduce blood pressure, muscle tension, insomnia, and improve body alignment, digestion, and overall well-being. Restorative is recommended for all! This class is ideal for those recovering from injury, illness, surgery or simply for those who want to complement their other classes with a low impact practice.

Yin Yoga
Yin is a slower, more gentle style of yoga that works on opening the body and mind. The majority of the poses are done on the ground in seated or reclined position and focused on longer deeper holds. Unlike other practices that focus on strengthening, heat building, and activation of the muscles, yin’s objective is to deactivate and to allow ourselves to release deeper into the connective tissues throughout the body. Poses are focused on passive release with the use of props and/or the wall for support and are typically held for 2-5 minutes each. After a few minutes of holding these poses, the body begins to find more release while helping to open and strengthen the joints. For those that have a hard time being still, this is a great mental practice. It may seem slow and gentle, but yin still offers a challenge of seeking our physical, mental, and emotional edges. There is great strength in surrender. Studio provides all props.

Meditation
If you are looking to calm the mind; the peaceful practice of meditation will allow you to be the observer of the mind’s activities, thus becoming less involved in the urgency of emotional and mental drama. This practiced detachment is the first step toward the inner quiet. The mind, free of thoughts, becomes transparent, allowing us to experience the peaceful balance that always lies just behind the mind. When the mind can be still, you will experience the pure happiness that is your true nature. As the practice of meditation matures, this inner serenity and balance will make its way into all corners of your life and you will be happy and steady person on the outside that you truly are on the inside.
Meditation is an ancient tradition in all the world’s cultures that has been practiced and taught for thousands of years by a few. If you are one of the few who would like to discover your inner self and enjoy the happiness of your true nature, consider learning about the practice of meditation. If you can give yourself 15 minutes every day to sit quietly, it is certain that you will awaken the steady and cheerful person within.

Bikram Method/ Hot 26
Bikram Method/ Hot 26 Yoga Class is a twenty-six asana (posture) series designed to scientifically warm and stretch muscles, ligaments and tendons, in the order in which they should be stretched. The first series of postures consists of the Standing Series followed subsequently by the Seated Series. The room is approximately 103-105 degrees with 40% humidity.
It may take a few classes for your body to adjust to the heat. Yoga is very emotional and works on many levels to heal. You will be practicing the same 26 postures in each class. You will feel different in every class because your body is different every day. Each posture is designed to complement each other, as they stretch and strengthen the necessary joints, ligaments and muscles that become important in preparing for the next posture.
Doing these asanas requires a combination of concentration, determination, patience, and self-control. Remember to breathe. Do your best and listen to your body. The end result will be a rejuvenated, re-energized self (mentally, physically and spiritually).
If you feel overwhelmed due to heat or exhaustion, please take rest. Do not let your ego take over– it won’t serve you.
NOTE: Please arrive hydrated and be prepared to sweat. Please bring a mat, hot yoga mat towel, and water. Note that we rent all of these items as well. The main goal is to try to stay in the room and to keep coming back!
